Kick kick.

I’m still kicking that dead horse here.  Harping about MLS photos that don’t show the TRUE picture of what a house looks like.  I took a buyer to see a listing today.  It was a beautiful country setting, all-brick house, acre of land, enough bedrooms, enough bathrooms.  You’d think giddy-up, right?

Wrong.

Kick kick.

The MLS photos didn’t show the gigantic blue tarp covering the caved in roof.

I would hereby like to move that agents everywhere display honest MLS photos.  But I know it won’t happen.  When hired by sellers, our job as Realtors is to find a buyer for the house and to get the most for the seller you can get.  To do that, you first must attract people TO THE HOUSE … everything after that is negotiable.  If we’d seen the blue tarp in advance, we would have never gone to look at the house.

That picture would’ve been worth about 24 miles for me… 24 miles that I wouldn’t have had to drive had I only seen it.

Photo from here… not the actual house.
